MP3: ‘Be My Wife’ From Upcoming Electronic David Bowie Covers Album

Rapster Records had such a ball putting together Exit Music, a collection of Radiohead covers and remixes in the hip-hop and dance styles, that it’s set its sights on vintage Bowie for a similar project.

Life Beyond Mars: Bowie Covered will include Bowie covers from another slew of electronic artists including Matthew Dear, Carl Craig, Joakim and Au Revoir Simone. The compilation is slated for a July 8 release.

"The selected artist could choose any track from his catalog andcreate their own fresh interpretation, however faithful to, ordifferent from the original," according to Rapster.

We wangled an MP3 of one track, Richard Walters & Faultline’s downtempo, minimalist, somewhat Kid A-like take on "Be My Wife" as a preview of what you can expect from the compilation.
